41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

Attended Swansea Primary School for a very successful information session with students and staff We are currently planning to attend our other municipal schools in the near future
GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

Concentrating on road rescue training with unit team member assessments and upcoming road rescue comps in NSW
Attended Swansea Primary School for a very successful information session with students and staff We are currently planning to attend our other municipal schools in the near future
GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

Concentrating on road rescue training with unit team member assessments and upcoming road rescue comps in NSW
Attended Swansea Primary School for a very successful information session with students and staff We are currently planning to attend our other municipal schools in the near future
GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights
11 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

Concentrating on road rescue training with unit team member assessments and upcoming road rescue comps in NSW
Attended Swansea Primary School for a very successful information session with students and staff We are currently planning to attend our other municipal schools in the near future
GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

41 Mr Bruce Press (Question Taken on Notice)
i Irsquove been in this room a fair bit when it has been full of public and of course you
Councillors I just wondered if we need an emergency exit because it is a long way
from the front door in the event of a fire I had a fire at my place at my home in Swansea
a year ago and I couldnrsquot find the emergency exit quick enough Itrsquos a long way from
the front door so is there a possibility of thinking about an emergency exit for this
particular room
Response from Mayor
Mr Press wersquoll have a look at that and see how it fits in the rules of buildings and exits and so forth but we will have a look at that Response from Manager Buildings The building was built to Australian Standards as a call centre in 2003 The Council Chambers meeting room was originally built as a training room for call centre staff The Council bought the building in 2014 and re-furbished the building The building surveyor did the ldquoSCHEDULE OF MAINTENANCE ndash PRESCRIBED ESSENTIAL BUILDING SERVICESrdquo for Council which included fire safety The smoke alarms and emergency lighting are checked every 6 months by Wormald fire protection specialists When the alarms go off people under the direction of staff are to make their way to the front doors to exit the building If at night and the power is off there are emergency exits lights

ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

ii I noticed yoursquove received some recent media attention along with TasWater providing
water at Coles Bay for the residents there Irsquove been providing water at Swansea for
Dolphin Sands Lake Leake and surrounding area residents for quite some time Can
we have a similar outlet in Swansea as Irsquove just received an $8800 bill of TasWater for
providing free water to those people I canrsquot afford to pay that so we need TasWater to
provide a similar service for Swansea for those people who donrsquot have access to town
water
Response from Mayor
Irsquoll get your details off you Mr Press and we can have a conversation about exactly whatrsquos needed up there and we can follow through with TasWater Thank you

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

Attended Swansea Primary School for a very successful information session with students and staff We are currently planning to attend our other municipal schools in the near future
GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

Attended Swansea Primary School for a very successful information session with students and staff We are currently planning to attend our other municipal schools in the near future
GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter

Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers

GSB SES Annual Unit Report 20182019
This yearrsquos Fire and Emergency services was themed ldquoNot the Normrdquo how true that was 2018 kicked off with a bang with strong winds impacting our area in August the evening saw crews attending roof damage incidents in Triabunna Little Swanport and Swansea with varying degrees of damage from loose roofing iron roof tiles blown off and out-buildings destroyed The trip to Triabunna for one callout took nearly 15 hours due to extreme winds with debris and a number of limbs needed to be removed for us to get through Luckily no injuries were reported and all incidents were dealt with in a timely manner As usual motor vehicle accidents accounted for the majority of callouts a total of 14 were attended by our volunteers Most only resulting in vehicular damage and minor occupant injury although a few did baffle crews as to how no one was seriously injured The theme still tends to be driver inattention driver error with most being only single vehicle incidents Fires around the state over Christmas saw our volunteers head to Bothwell to assist as staging area managers assisting TFS crews with the Miena fires helping with logistics communications and catering Fortunately the coast fared well over the summer period and it was not until the start of April that we had our turn at a major fire On the 10 of April an escaped burn off threatened property and house at the end of the Dolphin Sands peninsular over the course of the fire approx 160 hectares of vegetation was burnt and some 20 fire brigades and emergency services assisted in the efforts to control and extinguish the blaze Our local volunteers assisted with traffic management logistics communications evacuations and welfare of residents catering and generally helping where needed Special mention must go to our fantastic community who rallied to support crews on the ground on the first day by providing sandwiches and snacks as well as hot pot dishes the following day to keep crews going Thankyou also to council for assisting by providing water carts to the firefighting effort Unfortunately our volunteers attended a fatal shed fire in May again providing support to our other emergency services Members conducted traffic crowd management lighting catering scene safety our newly purchased SES marquee was also used for shelter
30 Agenda ndash Glamorgan Spring Bay Council ndash 23072019
Our volunteers are always ready to assist with support with crews assisting Ambulance Tasmania with night helicopter landings Tasmania Police with lighting and general duties Crews were also called to provide support to a technical rescue of a man trapped in an overturned boat a fantastic all service turnout saw the man extricated from the upturned vessel and safely transported to hospital for observation With a total of 41 incidents attended for the year 20182019 and some 243 person hours expended for our small team Great jobs when you think we have only 8 active members in the unit To compliment these incidents was always training keeping our skills current and learning new skills As expected road crash rescue training is a big part of our skills set this year we were lucky enough to be able to organise a joint training exercise at Bicheno in conjunction with the Bicheno fire brigade and St Maryrsquos SES The night was a great opportunity to meet other volunteers share experiences and demonstrate road rescue techniques utilising a cross section of equipment Locally we continue to train on our donated cars stored at the Swansea Waste Transfer Station these cars are vital for us to maintain our skills and learn new techniques on and we appreciate Councilrsquos ongoing support of us using this site We are also focusing on communications with the emphasis on what we may need to set up and provide during a major incident or for our own emergency operations centre Since purchasing a marquee earlier this year we have concentrated on utilising this as a base of operations and setup Our community engagement has continued with volunteers assisting with traffic management for the Swansea Community Christmas parade ANZAC Day commemorations Coles Bay 100 Triathlon attendance Volunteers also attended the Swansea Country Fair and Great Eastern Clean-up National Volunteers Week was celebrated in May with a presentation on Critical Incident Stress Management accompanied by a BBQ meal provided and cooked by Council staff This was extremely well received with 40 volunteers from throughout the municipal area attending Thanks again to our Councillors for their attendance and the cooking of the BBQ Our volunteers have spent many hours at the base completing work upgrading our storm trailer a purpose built racking system for our traffic management signs numerous upgrades and alterations to our vehicles layouts general tidy ups and maintenance Upgrades to IT throughout the building has seen wireless connectivity available in all areas Our new Ford Ranger first intervention vehicle has now been completed with the final fitout to the pod only just being completed (we are still awaiting final costings on the completed pod) This vehicle has already allowed us a more flexible response capability allowing for better crew access in the rear and more stowage space in the pod We are able to carry a larger range of Road Rescue equipment as well as lighting and on-board power supply Because of the open plan layout we are easily able to remove equipment and swap to a more user friendly storm response vehicle if needed I would like to thank Council for their support in purchasing this vehicle as it will see our unit in good stead for years to come All these things would not be possible without the continued dedication of our small group of professional enthusiastic volunteers who give freely of their own time to respond incidents religiously turn up to training attend community events prepare test and maintain all of our equipment keeping it running and operation ready for response These volunteers are supported by their families often leaving them at the most impromptu time to help our community in its time of need In summary we are so grateful for where we live the arearsquos natural beauty the community and its support shown to its volunteers
